]]>Vibiemme manufactured the first electronic machine - model Dosatronic.
The following year the technical know-how became easier and was applied on the Vibiemme Replica model: the first electronic Replicawas born.
At the end of the ‘80s there was a boom in export, the end of the Francoist regime allowed Spain to become the third market in the world in terms of quantity of imported espresso coffee machines; Portugal, surprisingly, becomes the second one.
In 1997 Vibiemme produced the Kometa model (from the Hale Bopp comet, which could be seen worldwide during that year). It was the first model equipped with a new brewing group (E64), an easier version compared to the E61-Vibiemme, always conceived following the principles of thermosiphonic circulation and mechanical pre-infusion.
From the mid ’90s the coffee roasters, through the first loan for use agreements, set new rules in the way of distributing espresso machines. This new trend, as a result, gave an exponential increase in new bars openings, even if daily coffee consumption decreased. To meet the new target, also products are further simplified:
The first Vibiemme Mercury model; simplification of the existing espresso coffee machines, made for one of the first mass markets.

Magister Sistema Caffè
Magister Sistema Caffè S.r.l. was founded in July 1997; our main aim is to design and build high quality and reliability espresso coffee machines. Since the beginning, our technical staff already had a consolidate and many-year experience in the field, that allowed us facing the challenge of the market.
Our first models MS and ES, still our production pride, came to the fore thanks to our corporate philosophy. The market highlighted the soundness of our coffee machines, not as simple parts and components assemblies , but as outcome of meticulous design and production processes, together with relevant investments for development and production techniques.
Magister gained a relevant position on the market thanks to a rapid and strong growth, with an increasing appreciation of its machines all over the world.
Then, our enthusiastic efforts gave birth to our KMS and KES models. Further to the traditional product engineering, a relevant importance was given to the design of these products, marking them as examples of typical Italian Style, with a pleasant, nice overall look.
The Kappa line, in eight different versions, found its way to the market’s heart, and the quality and attractiveness duo awarded Magister.
Such a philosophy has then been improved and reinforced with the Kappa Xp line, that brought the previous models to a higher level, refining our products and making them perfect examples of the real Made in Italy espresso coffee machines.
Finally the first signs of appreciation for our work came: The prestigious financial newspaper “Il Sole 24 ore” published an article about our company under the title “Coffee machine for real masters”
The town council of Milan awarded us with the Golden Mercury Award for entrepreneurial worth.
Such achievements are not our goal, they are just a starting point towards the future, that has never been so close, thanks to our brand new F-2006 and fully automatic machines: they are real jewels, and Magister’s aim is to face every competition still to come, trying to offer its customer prestigious products.
Magister’s brand is continuously and increasingly spreading around the world, as shown by several advertising campaign published co-operating with our distributors.
